Great Questions To Ask Your Kids!

I love taking quizzes – not necessarily the general knowledge kind, but the ones that dissect your personality and tell you things like what type of animal you are most like or what/who you were in a previous life.

The rules: WITHOUT any prompting, ask your child these questions & write down EXACTLY what they say. It's a great & funny way to find out exactly what they think. If you have more than one child, ask your children separately so they are not influenced by each other’s answers. Write down the first answer that they give.

Below each question are my kids' answers and what I thought of them. Nadja is 8 years old and Luis is 10.

This is so cute! My son isn’t old enough yet but in a few years I’d love to hear his answers. I think it could be cool to do this at a few different life stages since mine is so young, and see how his answers change.
